This information may help to identify certain factors (e.g., health status, medications, behaviors, environmental factors) that are exacerbating or diminishing the impact of the disease on individuals and/or on its spread. The findings are intended to help the scientific and medical communities make smart decisions when developing preventative and treatment solutions to COVID-19 and when providing care for those affected.

THE STUDY PROCESS

This study is virtual

The study has deployed a proprietary mobile application and digital platform (Obvio-19) to over 800 Americans in order to map their journeys during the worldwide COVID-19 pandemic, remotely enrolling, tracking symptoms, and identifying the immune system response over a period of 6 months.

This study is observational and self-reporting

The app will prompt participants with questions regarding symptoms and overall health for a period of 6 months. Some of the participants may be sent an at-home test kit, when they become available in the US, to determine if they have ever been infected with the virus.
